Baseline Atlanteans, according to OHOTMUDE #1, publication date Aug 85 (cover date Dec 85), in the entries for Andromeda (p. 12), Attuma (p. 44), and the Atlanteans themselves (pp. 38-9), can bench press 4 tons.

As for the fish bowl, that's kinda cheesy, but true. That's mostly covered by the Aquatic feature, though.

Their Marvel Universe technology is based off that of the Deviants, who I've removed from the world in the process of the Reboot. Reading through the OHOTMUDE entry, I discovered that their TL without this technology, even in the present-day MU, seems to be close to the Stone Age. (A lack of portable fire does make a difference, it seems.)
